Editor/Author Biographies
Yu-Jin Zhang, PhD, State University of Liège, Belgium, is Professor of Image Engineering at Tsinghua University, Beijing, China. Previously, he was with the Delft University of Technology, the Netherlands. In 2003, he spent the sabbatical year as visiting professor at National Technological University, Singapore. His research interests are mainly in the area of image engineering, including image processing, image analysis and image understanding, as well as their applications. He has published nearly 400 research papers and more than 20 books, including three monographs: Image Segmentation (Science Press, 2001), Content-based Visual Information Retrieval (Science Press, 2003) and Subspace-based Face Recognition (Tsinghua University Press, 2009), as well as two edited collections: Advances in Image and Video Segmentation (IRM Press, 2006) and Semantic-based Visual Information Retrieval (IRM Press, 2007). He is vice president of China Society of Image and Graphics and the director of the academic committee of the society. He is deputy editor-in-chief of Journal of Image and Graphics and at the editorial board of several international journals. He was the program co-chair of The First, Second, Fourth, and Fifth International Conference on Image and Graphics (ICIG'2000, ICIG'2002, ICIG'2007, and ICIG'2009). He is a senior member of IEEE.
